About

Roberto Troisi is a distinguished surgical innovator whose work has fundamentally shaped the landscape of minimally invasive hepatopancreatic surgery. His research centers on robotic and laparoscopic approaches to liver resection, pancreatic surgery, and living donor hepatectomy — fields where he has emerged as a globally recognized authority. Troisi's contributions span both technical and oncological dimensions of minimally invasive surgery. His comparative studies between robotic and laparoscopic liver resections, including propensity score-matched analyses of posterosuperior segments and right posterior sectionectomy, have provided rigorous evidence guiding surgical decision-making worldwide. His 2020 systematic review encompassing 2,728 robotic liver surgery cases offered the field its most comprehensive global assessment to date. Notably, his work extending robotic techniques to living donor hepatectomy — an area demanding exceptional precision given the stakes for healthy donors — reflects both his technical ambition and commitment to patient safety. His influence on pancreatic cancer surgery is equally significant, with the landmark DIPLOMA study (280 citations) establishing critical oncological benchmarks for minimally invasive distal pancreatectomy. Troisi has also shaped international consensus on robotic hepatectomy standards. Collectively accumulating over 1,300 citations, his body of work represents an essential foundation for surgeons and researchers advancing minimally invasive abdominal surgery.
